The importance of Microservices for modern world applications

Before we start exploring about the pivotal role of microservices for the modern applications, it would be a good idea to first understand what microservice architecture really means? 

Are microservices chaging the world?


Microservices are certainly an important aspect about the way organizations are approaching toward the application development in the modern world. There are ample reasons behind it. 

  • Microservices architeture makes it very easy for the developers to develop their applications that are more modular and scalable. 
  • By breaking down a large complex application into tiny, individual services that can easily be managed independently, microservices enable developers to quickly and easily incorporate changes to their applications as and when needed as required by the business teams. 
  • In addition to that, microservices also help to reduce complexity of the system since each services are dedicated to specific business aspect and hence, increases flexibility, better performance of each services, scalability, security and much more. 
  • Microservices architecture also allow for better integration with other applications or services, which makes it easier to create a cohesive experience across multiple platforms and multiple applications. 

Ultimately, microservices are a valuable tool, in other words a most valuable architectural style, for modern applications, allowing organizations to create more efficient, robust and effective applications.

How Microservices are reshaping the world?

This is an interesting one. Microservices is a paradigm shift that is transforming the way businesses and organizations approach software development for the modern day applications. With microservices, large applications are broken down into smaller, independent services, individual teams can work in parallel, quickly developing and shipping new features and bug or defect fixes and so on. 

This modular approach to application development allows for greater scalability, agility, maintainability and flexibility, allowing businesses to rapidly respond to customer asks and market trends. Additionally, another important, good and noteworthy aspect is that, microservices enable organizations to build applications with heterogeneous technology stacks, that allows for greater control over the application architecture. 

As businesses and organizations continue to leverage the power of microservices architecture as a development strategy for their modern world applications, the development teams in the software worlds are becoming more independent, effective, efficient and productive.

Why microservices is the future?

One of the question that I recently came across was, are microservices dead? However, per my viewpoint, looking at the various benefits that microservices architecture provides in comparison to traditional monolith applications, it surely is not going to be dead anytime sooner. It has a long way to go in the future. 

Microservices architecture is becoming increasingly popular among developers, architects and organizations for the reasons such as scalability, agility, maintainability, resiliency, technology agnostic approach, cost-effectiveness and much more. All these promising aspects of microservices makes it an ideal candidate of architectural choice in comparison to the traditional monolith development approach. And it seems that most of the organizations have started taking the microservices route already. How about you? Does your organization use microservices or monoliths?
